Herniated Disc Treatment Mississauga

What Is a Herniated Disc?

The spine is made up of vertebrae separated by soft cushioning structures called discs. These discs act as shock absorbers and help support movement throughout the spine.

A herniated disc occurs when the inner portion of a spinal disc pushes through its outer layer. This can place pressure on nearby nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, and reduced mobility.

Herniated discs commonly occur in the lower back and neck and may affect daily activities, work performance, and overall quality of life.
